Module Instructions
This module is designed as a case study under the topic of Clinical Ethics. Your goal is to navigate through the entire case study and answer the questions designed to check your knowledge along the way.

Pre-test/Post-test
Before you begin this case study there are a few questions we would like you to answer in a pretest. This test is designed to assess your current knowledge of clinical ethics for a Catholic healthcare organization in the context of issues at the beginning of life. At the end of the module we ask that you answer a similar set of questions in a post-test.

Questions Format
The questions are both multiple choice and true/false. You are to choose the best ethical response based on the mission and values of the organization, the Catholic moral tradition as expressed in the Ethical and Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Services and ethical principles. After selecting your response to each question, the answer along with the rationale will be provided.

Background and Resources
Throughout the course, background information and resources are provided. Background refers to information specific to the case, question or answer. Resources refer to information broader than the specifics of the case, question or answer. When a hyperlink is included in the background or resource section, you may immediately access the information.
